The MEaning of LAnguage. Digital Grammar of the Greek Taught at Schools in Late Constantinople
Multiple registers coexisting within the same linguistic system and the creation of grammars codifying one of these registers as ‘the standard’ are phenomena common to many languag...
Peptide Killers of Bacteria
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria cause more than 700 000 deaths per year, and the forecast is 10 million per year in 2050. Moreover, emerging strains of bacteria resistant to all avai...
Cryo-electron tomography for microbial ecology and evolution
The cryo-electron microscopy (cryoEM) modalities of single particle analysis and cryo-electron tomography (cryoET) have revolutionized the fields of structural biology and cellular...
Universality, Phase Transitions and Disorder Effects in Statistical Physics
Mathematical statistical physics has seen spectacular progress in recent years.Existing problems which were previously unattainable were solved, opening a way to approach some of t...
Black Hole Interactions and Neutron star Collisions Across the universe
Recent years witnessed a blossoming of multi-messenger astrophysics, in which gravitational waves (GWs), neutrinos, and photons provide complementary views of the universe and its...
Sensory-driven Body Transformation Experiences On-the-move
Our physical body is the interface between ourselves and the world around us.The way we perceive our body, its appearance, configuration and motor abilities shapes our behaviour, e...
Foraging at the Edge of Capitalism
In this moment of economic and environmental breakdown, an unexpected source of income has risen in global importance: foraging.In Tibet and Nepal, scores of collectors rush to the...
Productive Spatial Accelerator Programming
We propose a productive and efficient programming model to overcome the challenges posed by the end of Moores law. Our model bases on a fundamentally new spatial viewpoint that con...
The Patterns of Conflict Emergence: Developing an Automated Pattern Recognition System for Conflict
Are there recurring patterns in the escalation and emergence of wars? The idea that history may repeat itself is old.Butrecent advances overcoming methodological and data barriers...
Unraveling Turbulence through Ensemble Decomposition
Turbulence governs essentially all large-scale flows on our planet, including our atmosphere and oceans.With a vast number of engineering applications in transportation technology,...
Mycenaean Social Belonging from an Integrative Bioarchaeological Perspective
Since Heinrich Schliemann excavated the famous shaft graves at Mycenae and identified the individuals as members of Agamemnon’s royal family, archaeologists have tried to understan...
Cooperative Synthesis by Molecular Deconvolution
The past six decades have seen awe-inspiring progress in the science of synthesis.In academia, the assembly of complex molecules (natural products) still poses a challenge, but is...
Establishing a global observational view of the early stages of planet formation and evolution
Recent observing campaigns have revealed a great diversity in exoplanetary systems whose origin is yet to be understood.How and when planets form, and how they evolve and interact...
Religious Translation, the Catholic Church and Global Media: a study of the products and processes of multilingual dissemination.
PIETRA is the first, large-scale, multilingual study of the translation products and processes that underpin communication in global religion.The project focuses on translation pra...
Universality of random planar maps and trees
The PI proposes to study a variety of open problems involving random planar maps and trees.This is a booming field at the intersection of probability, geometry, statistical physics...
Dynamics of Trust and Distrust Creation in Internet Voting
I-voting has been around for two decades now and yet it still fails to be widely implemented. One of the main motives is the citizens’ lack of trust in the technology and the peopl...
Ampher Controller Technology
Uptake of electric vehicles (EVs) depends on the availability of charging points. If charging the EVs is not possible, people will stop buying them.In some regions, the available g...
A new high-performance and environmentally clean engine for heat pumps, using thermo-acoustics technology
Heat pumps are the best sustainable solution for heating and cooling, but they have performance limitations and are very expensive, preventing them from having the desirable market...
Radical Improvement of Cancer Treatment without Additional Negative Side Effects
We have developed a device – called HyperCollar4D – that significantly increases the effectiveness of radiotherapy for head and neck (H&N) cancer.The first results on 70 patien...
Hyperloop, for smarter, faster, greener and better transportation starting with freight
Hardt was founded by the winners of Elon Musk’s hyperloop competition and has grown towards 40 people. The dream is realizing the Europan Hyperloop Network.A 10,000 kilometre hyper...
